Haircuts

We went to Comedy Cuts to get school haircuts today. An hour and $40 later (see why I normally just do it at home?!) this is what we came out with.

Jacob before:

Jacob after. (I buzzed his hair about a month ago so there wasn't much there to begin with, she just trimmed his sides up.)


Jonah (who's been completely high on something today, I'm not sure what his deal is.)





Miss Congeniality before:




And after:

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Here it is after. We got about 3 inches cut off of the back, I almost had a panic attack when she was cutting it. It looks good though, it's all wavy in this picture because the girl sprayed it to cut it and then it just air dried.
So they're all set! We go meet the boys' new teacher on Thursday and school starts Monday!

She sort of gets it

Last night, as Emmy and I were going to sleep (it was her "special" night to sleep with Mom - although most nights end up as Emmy's "special" night, but that's another post) she started chatting like she often does:

Em: We're lucky because we have a house. Some people don't have houses.

Me: That's right, some don't.

Em: And some people don't have toys. We're lucky to have toys.

Me: You sure are.

Em: God is magic and has magic powers.

Me: Uh.....

Em: Yeah, he lives on the biggest cloud and he can do whatever he wants.

Me: Oooookay.

Em: Some people don't have doors. And they don't have a roof or windows. They have to put a big ladder on the house and jump in. Then they have to wash their hands because they land on the floor and there are germs there. Why does God make germs? That's mean.

I gave the reply that I often give her when she asks questions like this: "ask your Daddy." He always thinks of something to tell her and whatever that is usually results in more questions.

She makes me tired. :)
